We beginnen met de jeugdafdeling en daar is heel veel te zien.

De trap naar beneden erheen is al leuk met aapjes op de vloer.

Een Jip en Janneke bank met Takkie bovenop.

Jip and Janneke is the most famous Dutch childrens book you can think of. Everybody knows it and everybody loves it. It is wonderfull to be read from it by your parents as a child, but it is also fun to read it to your own child because you know it so well. It is translated in English I know, because my daughter brought it to the States this Christmas for the little cousins.
